AUTHOR & POET

Welcome to Anika Speaks.

I share poetry and prose and my passion for supporting others, especially those (or their children) who are either diagnosed as being on the spectrum or are trying to get an assessment.

Our Brave New World.

OUT NOW

Our Brave New World is now published on Apple and Amazon. It is a book to uplift and encourage yourself or others with. Although written during covid, there are very few poems that talk about it. My aim in writing it was to encourage others during their dark or difficult days.
